Their rec facilities were substandard with the flooring so uneven you could trip over it but, fortunately they were all completely empty.

Saw no one outside except for one family with grand children playing on the single miniature golf course and about 3 golf carts driving.

This was before checking out TV and happened in June 2016.

When we drove out the front gate we both LITERALLY felt a huge weight lift off of our shoulders like we'd just escaped from prison.

There is a real, person there checking IDs before letting people through the gate so there is better security.
